A dream in which you have too many teeth could symbolize obsession, greed, and possessiveness. It could also symbolize the receipt of good things at the wrong time, or the desire to compensate for your insecurities.
The full meaning depends on the details such as the color and state of the teeth.
Here are some detailed meanings of having too many teeth in the dream.
Greed
Having too many teeth in a dream could symbolize greed. This is greed that not only hurts those you deprive of their rightful resources but in the long term, your habit might end up harming you too. In a bid to get more and more, you will proverbially bite more than your mouth can handle.
Receipt of a good thing at the wrong time
If you dream about having too many teeth, you probably just received or acquired something good at the wrong time, rendering the whole thing not just devoid of any benefit but actually bad for you. It is a case of bad timing, a lack of awareness of the season.
Wasting your time and energy on something you do not need
A dream about having too many teeth could mean you are wasting too much time, energy, and resources on things you do not need—things that you already have enough of.
While the thing you’re trying to get may not be bad in itself, having too much of it, as with anything, would not play out well for you.
Waiting for too long to start on something
A dream in which you see yourself with too many teeth in the dream could mean you have been waiting for the right time to do something for far too long.
You feel underprepared and are waiting for a time when you have enough experience, enough skill, enough money, or enough time. However, this dream means you actually already have what it takes. You have far more than you need for the pursuit of whatever it is you want.
Overcompensating for your insecurity
A dream about having too many teeth could symbolize overcompensating for your own perceived inadequacies.
In an attempt to prove yourself, you will end up ruining your reputation, wasting your resources, and possibly hurting those around you.
These might not even be real shortcomings. They could all be psychological problems that cause you to see yourself in a less-than-flattering light.
Here are some dreams about having too many teeth and what they might mean
Dream about having too many broken teeth
A dream in which you see yourself with too many broken teeth symbolizes your reluctance to let go of things and people that should no longer be in your life.
This might manifest in daily life through your inability to get over friends and partners that leave you. It may also be seen in your inability to part with damaged possessions that are best thrown in the dumpster.
Dream about having too many teeth and pulling them out
A dream in which you see yourself having too many teeth that someone else such as a doctor pulls out, means your greed and desire will end up affecting the people that care about you. They will be forced to save you from the pits of your own digging despite their many warnings.
Dream about a child with too many teeth
A dream about a child with too many teeth could symbolize your many talents and abilities that you never got to develop and share with the world. The child in this dream is symbolic of yourself in past times when you still had certain dreams and aspirations.
